Excellent turn based sliding puzzle game. The level design is consistently good and the presentation is also fantastic.

Despite the cutesy art style, the gameplay is dense and requires a lot of thought but remains accessible to people who don't want to think 10 turns ahead. The campaign is sweet but fairly short at roughly 5 hours, I went for 100% because I liked the game so much. In terms of quality, this game punches way, way above it's weight considering the price tag.

It's a bit sad really how underexposed this game is, with only ~70 Steam reviews since it came out in 2020, I think they actually lowered the price as a result. This is kind of insane to me that this game never took off since it's so good and it was already great value before the price change.

Anyway, definitely worth a pickup, this is a true hidden gem.
